Emulation Flow - Ostrich and TunerPro RT

Post by kevinvinv »

Hello,

I plugged in my new Ostrich (2.0) and got it working with TunerPro RT (registered user :) ).

I am just wondering if there is any documentation on this at all I can read?

Is the flow basically "change a bunch of stuff" and then "upload the current bin to the ostrich"

I wasnt sure if there was a way to sort of change a parameter and have it immediately emulated without the upload step or not.

Either way... this setup is sweet!!

Loosely, something like this:

0. Attach Ostrich to ECM/vehicle
1. Attach Ostrich to PC
2. Start TunerPro RT
3. Load BIN file
4. Load XDF file
5. Click the blue up arrow in the toolbar to upload the bin to the Ostrich
6. verify bin via toolbar button.

Now you can key on the vehicle

7. To make incremental changes, enable emulation via the blue chip icon in the toolbar.
8. Open the paraemter you'd like to edit. Edit it.
9. When you click the update button in the parameter editor, your changes will be committed to the bin and uploaded to the Ostrich, and your vehicle will be running off of the new value(s).
10. When done, and periodically in between, save the bin to file for posterity.

When the emulation toolbar button is disabled, step 9 will not result in the change being uploaded to the emulator, and the parameter editor button will show "save" instead of "update."

Thanks for this! I figured it out a few weeks ago and the RT emulation capability saved me a TON of time finding a very odd bug in my bin file. It is a great capability to have and you do an excellent job with this tool!

Thank you very much!
